Reporter Marlborough Express

When the wind picks up, we often find our bin or others in our cul-de-sac overturned and the contents blowing up the driveways.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
